In this episode, we meet with Mark Steadman, a pioneer of the podcast industry.

Mark’s serious about podcasts, and his passion for the industry and for his fellow podcasters took him on an incredible, decade long journey of discovery. After creating, in his words, “the world’s most technically advanced podcast that no one listened to,” Mark decided to change lanes and begin his own hosting platform.

In 2016, Mark started Podiant, a podcast hosting, analytics, and distribution company. In the spring of 2021, he sold that business to Castos.

Dive deeper into how he discovered his competitive edge in the market, as well as some of the big mistakes he made along the way. Not only will you learn the fundamentals of how to set up a great podcast for your business, but you’ll also learn how he turned a passion project into the perfect acquisition for every party involved, all within six years.
